    TKR Fall

    Hi I fell on my operated knee 4months after surgery. Took whole impact on it ouch! Fortunately didn’t damage implant but set me back at least 6 weeks. Probably get it checked out.

    PKR MrsJW's Recovery Thread, stitches not dissolved.

    Hi I'm now coming up to 6 months. I still have tight band like feeling. Unfortunately fell on my operated knee 3 weeks ago which has set me back. It's very early days for you. Try not to over exercise just do gentle stretching

    TKR Fell on operated knee

    Hi Mrs JW I prob got full ROM back at about 3months. I would advise caution doing gym like exercises too soon because I think I overdue it early on and as a result now have excessive tightness around my knee. Good luck with your recovery

    TKR Fell on operated knee

    Ghostpipe they certainly are! I am thinking that the mistake I made early on in recovery was over exercising that's prob why my knee is so tight. Someone on here mentioned cold laser therapy. Might give that a go when my bruising fades.

    TKR Fell on operated knee

    Thank you. I must admit it has knocked my confidence not to mention the tissue around my knee is so squashy and tender. Hopefully it won't set me back too much. Yes like you the right band feeling is awful. Don't feel any improvement from prob 2 months ago

    Hi Cram I'm 5months patella femoral replacement and I get tugging pulling sensation across my knee cap when climbing stairs descending stairs etc. My consultant said it's soft tissue healing.
